Serene and affordable community in Southeast San Diego.

Schools Dining Walkable Healthcare Medical Affordable

The majority of Chollas Creek is strictly residential, with quiet streets fairly removed from the busier thoroughfares. Local parents have options for their young children’s education, with both a public elementary school and a Waldorf school at the center of the neighborhood (and with a healthy sidewalk system, walking to class is a breeze).

On the north side, University Avenue packs an incredibly diverse selection of international eateries into just a few blocks, giving residents options as unique as French, Somali, and Vietnamese cuisines literally next door to one another.

Promise Hospital sits just beyond the northeast corner of the neighborhood, making it a great location for healthcare professionals; and with San Diego State University’s campus right up the road, Chollas Creek’s affordable rental houses and apartments are ideal for students.
